Isabelle is my skincare guru and expert. I’ve been going to her for facials for many years, and I trust her advice implicitly! She helped me set up an excellent home skincare regimen and only recommends the highest quality products.

Isabelle is a wonderful waxer. She takes her time to ensure every hair is removed. Her space is relaxing, comfortable and in a great location.”

I have been a client of Isabelle Gerard’s for about 20 years. Her salon is spotless and Isabelle is efficient, cheerful, informative and a delight. Her skin products are excellent and reasonable in price.

I have been going to Isabelle for waxing and facials for more than 15 years, and in all that time, every encounter has been pleasant and comfortable, and I have been super-satisfied with the results. Isabelle observes and educates, professionally and gently, as she works on your skin.

Isabelle is well trained (in France), very skilled, and has great experience working with all types of skin and skin problems. Her salon is clean, classy (soft music and fresh flowers), and all the equipment and surfaces that I have seen in the salon are extremely clean and modern. She does sell skin care products but she never pushes them. I trust her completely, and I always leave her salon feeling uplifted from her cheerful company and her excellent service.”(show less)

I have been seeing Isabelle for a few years and for a variety of services. I admire how she runs her business. Communication is excellent (quick responses), appointments are consistently on time, and the studio is pristine and inviting.

I appreciate that she provides feedback when asked but does not chide me for my (lack of) skin care. I look forward to my appointments as I can count on a period of calmness from an otherwise demanding lifestyle. High marks from me on all counts.”(show less)

I’ve been going to to Isabelle Gerard for many years now and decided I should share her with the rest of the world! I go to see her for waxing primarily although I also love her face and skin products and ONLY use those that I buy from her. I trust her so much, I sent my daughter to her as well for her skin issues.

I’ve unfortunately had to go to other people for waxing on occasion when I’ve forgotten to get an appointment before leaving for a beach vacation. It’s always a disaster and I’m much better now about making sure I get in to see her before I leave. She’s very thorough, fast, kind and does her work in a clean and lovely setting in Montclair. My eyebrows are NEVER overdone, but look perfect. She’s very good with bikini and thigh waxing and I can stay distracted by chatting with Isabelle while she’s working. She’s French and I love her dry sense of humor. I’m glad she’s younger than me, as I expect to be going to her for many, many more years!”(show less)

Honestly the best wax experience I’ve ever had. Isabelle was kind enough to squeeze me in to her schedule before a trip and she did an excellent and thorough job. I will never anyone else with my wax again!”

I have been seeing Isabelle for 5 years and she’s the truly the best. She is a true professional; she does fantastic work and also works with high integrity. She is very experienced and knowledgable about all things skin-related. Her studio is spotless. When you’re there — she’s 100% focused on her work and doing a thorough and flawless treatment.

I have sensitive skin and gone to very well-known, upscale spas for over 20 years and no one comes close to the quality of Isabelle’s work. I’d give 100 stars if I could — and highly recommend her and her studio for any treatment (facials, waxing).”(show less)

Her technique is masterful in both waxing and facials. She has a wonderful aesthetic for beautiful music which soothes and edifies her clients. I have been going to Isabelle for over 20 years and truly appreciate her excellent care.”(show less)
